The Mountaineer Lyrics by Lizzie No

Hard Won

0

[Verse 1]
Here on the ridge by the great divide
We squint from the sun and the sweat in our eyes
And I've got a song in the palm of my hand
With smooth little stones from the riverbed
[Chorus]
And I know I've stayed too long here
I watch the rest of the world disappear
I'll keep my feet planted firm on the ground
Lookin' down
Like a mountaineer
Oh oh oh
[Verse 2]
The southern cross that sits in the sky
Tells you to pray when you're dreamin' at night
And your name's in a bag that you hang on your shoulder
'Til you lay it all down and leave it forever
[Chorus]
And I know I've stayed too long here
I watch the rest of the world disappear
I'll keep my feet planted firm on the ground
Lookin' down
Like a mountaineer
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
[Bridge]
We've given up bein' good
We only want a different point of view
We've given up being good
We only want a different point of view
[Verse 3]
We'll camp in the place where the highway won't find us
Then sway with the earth gently waltzing beneath us
Believe it or not, it's the closest we've come
To the beautiful places we wish we came from
[Chorus]
And I know I've stayed too long here
I watch the rest of the world disappear
I'll keep my feet planted firm on the ground
Lookin' down, down, down
I know I've stayed too long here
I watch the rest of the world disappear
I'll keep my feet planted firm on the ground
Lookin' down
Like a mountaineer
[Outro]
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh (I've given up bein' good)
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh (Lay it all down and leave it forever)
Oh oh oh (I'll keep my feet planted firm on the ground)
Oh oh oh (Lay it all down and leave it forever)
Oh oh
